This is the Pete Olcott copyright 2018, 2019 notion of
infinitesimals that have a bijection to every point on
the number line indexed by integers.

Reals have no point immediately adjacent to 0.0, infinitesimals
name this point 0.0[1].

For positive reals exponents can be any reals, so that you can have a 
nondenumerable semi-open set of exponents A = [1, oo) and thus a nondenumerable 
semiopen set for real x X(x) = {x^a: 0<x<1, a in A} which has no minimum under < 
and a maximium of x. This is a nondenumerable version of an infinite strictly 
decreasing bounded sequence.

To maintain definitions of exponentiation and less than for surreal 
infinitesimals, X(dx) for infinitesimal dx is also a nondenumerable subset of 
(0, dx]; thus a nondenumerable set separates 0.0 and dx. There is no point 
immediately adjacent to 0.0 even for surreals.

You can, of course, define a set of infinitesimals which are not surreal, but it 
becomes your responsibility to prove your element 0.0[1] uniquely exists and can 
be meaningfully orderred among reals.

I can define the set of all four corner triangles. However it is empty: it has 
no (unique) elements.

I can also define < on naturals and < on triangles but that alone does not make 
4 < triangle ABC a meaningful statement.

I don't pay any attention to any of these things. I simply derived a
notational convention that allows all of the adjacent points on a number
line to be directly referenced.

I also proved why this is required in that Real numbers leave gaps
in the number line with points that are unaccounted for.

You don't seem to pay attention to anything much.  Making up a notation
is not the same as forming a mathematical theory.

You haven't proven anything.  "Proof by repeated assertion" is not valid
in mathematics.

Perhaps the real people could give up this thread?  I had hoped that
there might be some interesting mathematics here, or even that PO could
learn something.  But while we have seen that there are people in
c.l.c++ who are competent and interested in mathematics, I don't think
there is anyone here with a hammer big enough to knock some sense
through PO's thick skull.  And his continued wilful ignorance makes it
difficult to have an intelligent discussion on the topic (or anything else).

Infinity is counterintuitive. Nondenumerable infinite sets are doubleplus 
counterinitutive. God made integers; all else is the work of man.

So you take an uncountable set, the set of reals, you add numbers
to that set, and that somehow magically makes the set countable.

And your proof of that is a simple assertion.

You can't even provide a bijection between this expanded set of
reals of yours, and the natural numbers. But surely it must be
countable because you say it is. That's all the proof you need.

Also, you can't give a single property of that "0.0[1]" number
which distinguishes it from zero.

The length of this interval is exactly 3.0
(0.0, 3.0]
The smallest real number larger than 0.0 is its first point.

The length of this interval is exactly one geometric point longer than 3.0
[0.0, 3.0]

If we limit the specified points in the intervals to integers then:
(0.0, 3.0] specifies: {1,2,3}
[0.0, 3.0] specifies: {0,1,2,3}
Proving that the above intervals are not the same length.

And points are zero-dimensional. They have no length.

Claims about the integers don't carry over to the reals. As a trivial 
example, the integer 1 is not divisible by 2. The real number 1.0 is.

You can enumerate rationals, E:rationals to naturals. Then define the order O to 
be xOy = E(x)<E(y). The smallest rational larger than 3 would be 4 or 
thereabouts. This might not be the most useful order but does show the axiom of 
choice works on rationals.

Note that you define a total order on R^n: each real in the orderred n-tuples 
has a decimal representation. You can interleave the digits of the n reals into 
a single real and define the total order of R^n to be the usual < on this R^1 
set of interleaved reals. Again not a particularly useful order, but it does 
prove you can total order R^n for any natural n. Once you understand tricks like 
this are allowed, you realise maybe there is some order on reals that satisfies 
the axiom of choice.

Not for the usual < order. Someday someone might come up with an order that can 
do this. According the axiom of choice, it's out there. Somewhere.

There is no such real number, because all Reals are divisible by 2
there is such an Infinitesimal number: a single indivisible point

The axiom of choice says the set has a distinguished minimum with respect to 
some orderring, but not what that orderring is. The usual < order does not work; 
nobody has yet discoverred an orderring that does. Assuming choice produces 
unsettling results like this, but not inconsistencies, so it is allowed.

Real numbers do not have infinitesimals. That was discoverred a couple of 
hundred years of ago. This is why most treatments of calculus use limits instead 
of the infinitesimals of Newton and Liebniz.

You're misreading the axiom of choice. While the axiom can be assumed for 
nondenumerable sets, no has come up with an orderring of, say, reals that an 
open set has a distinguished minimum.

I have updated this on the basis of feedback:

(1) There cannot be a real number associated with the point
immediately adjacent to 0.0 because real numbers must be divisible
by 2 and single points are indivisible.

(2) If there is no real number immediately adjacent to 0.0 then
there is always a measurable gap after 0.0. By dividing the
size of the gap by 2 it gets smaller and smaller yet never closes,
there are always points in the gap that are unaccounted for.

This is where Infinitesimal numbers come in:
[0,1] - (0,1] = {0} a single point on the number line.
Thus proving a difference (in length) of one point between the first
interval and the second interval.

In all of the years where the width of a single point has been defined
to be 0 it was defined incorrectly, the actual width is Infinitesimal.

Infinitesimals sometimes act as if they had zero width and other times
act as if they minimum width. This is similar to the dichotomy of the
particle versus wave theories of light.

When we adapt (0,1] to the Infinitesimal number notational conventions it becomes
[0[1], 1] indicating an interval beginning with a single point offset from 0.

This notational convention allows us to reference subsequent immediately
adjacent points on the number line: [0[1], 1] - {0[1]} = [0[2], 1].

You have to provide a length function and prove its properties. The best I can 
think of is d(S) = d(inf S, sup S). Since inf[0, 1] = inf(0, 1], under my 
definition d[0, 1] = d(0, 1].

I switch min to inf because you end up with lim d(x, 1], x/=0, x->0, and that's 
just a cladded definition of inf.

I don't understand any of that stuff.
I do understand that (0, 1] is one point longer than (0, 1).

Which entails that the definition of zero width points is incorrect.
The first interval clearly has one more point than the second.

The first interval also has a length of exactly 1.0 and the
second interval has a length that is one point less than 1.0
because the missing point clearly has a numerical value that
is greater than its predecessor.

Your assertion in the form of an erroneous premise followed by an equally 
erroneous conclusion is, obviously, also erroneous.  You don't get to 
define what is meant by a "geometric point"; we already have a well 
established and accepted definition for that concept.

More erroneous nonsense.

You are either:

1) a troll;
2) a fucktard;
or
3) not taking your medication.

Which is it?

Despite my very limited understanding of logic, mathematics and
everything else, I can't agree with you.  There are some limitations to
what is possible in formal logic; the same cannot today be said about
mathematics.  There are things in some formal logic systems that cannot
be proven, but AFAIK there is no known result to the effect of what
mathematics can or cannot prove.

Peter Smith in ``An Introduction to Godel's Theorems (ISBN:
978-0-511-35096-2)'', on section 1.2, page, writes:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Suppose we try to specify a suitable axiomatic theory T that seems to
capture the structure of the natural number sequence and pin down
addition and multiplication (and maybe a lot more besides). Then Godel
gives us a recipe for coming up with a corresponding sentence G(T),
couched in the language of basic arithmetic, such that (i) we can show
(on very modest assumptions, e.g. that T is consistent) that neither
G(T) nor ~G(T) can be derived in T, and yet (ii) we can also recognize
that, at least if T is consistent, G(T) will be true.
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

So, Godel's recipe itself shows T is incomplete, meaning T cannot prove
(as true or false) everything that can be stated in T.  One could think
that, therefore, we don't know whether the statement G(T) is true or
false.  Peter Smith adds that we can also recognize that, assuming T is
consistent, then G(T) will be true.  This /recognition/ is not backed up
by T because T only asserts what it can --- and T cannot assert G(T).

We may say we have a precise definition of a system of logic is, but we
cannot say we have a precise definition of what mathematics is.  What we
can say is that if mathematics can be perfectly equated to logic, then
we don't have any idea of what this system of logic would be to be
equated to what we think mathematics is.

Goedel's incompleteness theorem is not that a specific proposition is unprovable 
but that any system complex enough to prove number theory theorems will have 
either true propositions which cannot be proven (incompleteness) or false 
propositions which can be proven (w-inconsistency).

Picture the boundary between truth and falseness as if a fractal curve, truth 
and falseness become so entangled that it takes a nondenumerably infinite proof 
to distinguish.

We can force the issue on a finite subset of propositions asserted or denied as 
postulates without introducing inconsistency. Experience has shown the continuum 
hypothesis like the parallel postulates does not lead to inconsistency.
